UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 ---------------------------------- FORM 8-K ---------------------------------- CURRENT REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(D) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 November 17, 1997 0-16132 - --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- Date of Report (Date of earliest event reported) Commission File Number Celgene Corporation (Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) Delaware 22-2711928 - -------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- (State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization) (I.R.S. Employer Identification Number) 7 Powder Horn Drive Warren, New Jersey 07059 ---------------------------------- (Address of Principal Executive Offices) (Zip Code) (732) 271-1001 ---------------------------------- (Registrant's telephone number, including area code) Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets On November 18, 1997, Celgene Corporation and Cambrex Corporation issued a press release announcing that they had entered into a letter of intent for Cambrex to acquire Celgene's chiral intermediate business for approximately $15 million. A copy of the press release, dated November 18, 1997, is filed hereto as an exhibit and is incorporated herein by reference. Item 7. Financial Statements, Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits. (a) Not applicable. (b) Unaudited Pro forma financial information The following pro forma financial information for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 are unaudited. The unaudited Pro Forma Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were prepared as if the sale of the chiral intermediate business had occurred effective as of January 1, 1996. The unaudited pro forma statements do not purport to represent what the Company's results of operations would actually have been if the chiral intermediate transaction had in fact occurred on such date or to project the Company's results of operations for any future period. The unaudited pro forma financial statements show how the transaction might have affected the historical results of operations if the chiral intermediate transaction had been consummated at an earlier time, and show the possible scope of the change to results of operations caused by the chiral intermediate transaction. The unaudited pro forma financial statements do not include an unaudited pro forma balance sheet, because the value of the assets expected to be sold in the transaction is not material and any accounting gain cannot yet be determined until the sale of the assets is finalized.
